HOW TO READ THIS CHART: Most members of Congress get the bulk of
their campaign contributions from two main sources: the industries
that make up the economic base of their home district and the
Washington-based interest groups that pay more attention to the
member's committee assignments in Congress. In addition, most
Democrats receive substantial sums from labor unions.

NOTE: All the numbers on this page are for the 2017-2018 House
